Honoring Prof. Karaosmano\u011flu<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Department of International Relations organized an event in June to honor Prof. Ali Karaosmano\u011flu, who served as chair of the department from 1988 to 2007. During the event, Prof. Karaosmano\u011flu, Rector K\u00fcr\u015fat Aydo\u011fan, FEASS Dean Refet G\u00fcrkaynak, Prof. Ersel Ayd\u0131nl\u0131 and IR Department Chair \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u00d6zdamar gave speeches. Prof. Karaosmano\u011flu expressed his gratitude to Prof. \u0130hsan Do\u011framac\u0131 and Prof. Ali Do\u011framac\u0131 for their encouraging attitudes towards research. He thanked them for their support in establishing the Center for Foreign Policy and Peace Research periodical All Azimuth as well as for their contributions to advance the IR department. The second half of the event proceeded with Prof. Ayd\u0131nl\u0131\u2019s moderation as Prof. Karaosmano\u011flu shared his views on international relations discipline. Prof. Karaosmano\u011flu emphasized the necessity of reconnecting IR with its roots, such as philosophy, history and law. He stressed the importance of understanding history to fully comprehend the theoretical basis of international relations and to minimize the possible alterations and prejudices in the field. A video documentary of the event and speeches will be broadcast on the IR Department\u2019s Youtube Channel in September 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
